Last week Elsie was sleeping through the night, and when she wasn't she would only wake up once, which is totally fine by me. But I honestly thought by the end of the week that we had cracked it, until she stayed over at her grandmas and it must have messed with her pattern. Now she is waking 3 times a night and screaming like a banshee.
I think it must be to do with her teething, because she won't get her hands out of her mouth and she is drooling like a st. bernard. On the plus side she has mastered getting her chubby little hands around teething objects and she can get them to her mouth which makes me think that she should be part of mensa... haha.
Not only is Elsie no longer sleeping, but now Lola won't sleep through the night and has started hammering on the kitchen door for us to go and pay her some attention. This is also around 3 times a night and when we let her out for the toilet she just plays...
So we are up about 6 times a night and we are going a bit insane with sleep deprivation. Now the whole family is ill... how do you get better without sleep? How do I do my work with an ill baby, an ill husband an annoying dog and a head that feels like it is filled with cotton wool.
HELP.
